It's interesting to see how Google turned from a respected company everyone wanted to work at to a "persona non grata" within just a few years. I wonder what were the main reasons for this change?
- gerash 6y agoPerhaps heavy negative campaigning previously by Microsoft (Scroogled?) and still by Murdoch's media outlets had at least some effects. Their fail fast, watch growth metics and bad product leadership also don't help
- liability 6y agoGoogle has the lion's share of the blame for their negative reputation, not microsoft and fox news.
- millimeterman 6y agoI think public opinion on data collection and targeted advertising has really changed in the past couple decades. No one really thought or cared about it when Google was founded, whereas now it's devolved into mass hysteria.
